About me

Are you going through a crisis? Do you have anger or relationship problems? Are you feeling depressed, lonely and/or anxious?

At certain times we all experience difficulties and doubt, go through life transitions (career change, divorce, new relationship, mid-life crisis) or discover patterns in our lives that are un-supportive. Seeing a counsellor or psychotherapist can help you face these challenges and turn them into an opportunity for personal growth.

I offer Counselling & Psychotherapy including EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique).I work with Individuals - both women and men - on an open-ended basis or for an agreed time period.

Counselling tends to be more short term work (6 -10 sessions) focused on supporting you through a specific situation such as work problems, family issues, divorce or redundancy.. This solution focused approach is cost effective and really can make a big difference in your life.

Psychotherapy tends to be longer term work on personal growth and covers broader issues such as building self esteem, changing patterns in intimate relationships, learning good self-care and increasing personal satisfaction.

I work in an Integrative way using various styles of therapy to fit the individual, You.Often I use a cognitive approach combined with EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique=Tapping) and somatic techniques. This helps you to gain insight and a better understanding of yourself whilst the techniques mentioned offer an opportunity for real transformation.You will also learn tools you can use on your own once the sessions have finished.

I work with many men, especially in their Thirties and Forties, supporting them through crisis situations, relationship difficulties, career and life choices and questions of male identity.

Sessions are available in English and German.
